I tried again this time to see “Lip Mountain,” but to no avail.Still, when I look at the lake, there are canoes already there, even though it is 5:30 in the morning.
The sight of the trees in the morning glow and the mist rising over the surface of the lake as they quietly make their way along is truly elegant.Non-powered canoes are appropriate for Lake Shikaribetsu.

Birch trees jutting out over the lake.
